1740 Can I See That Medicine?
How good-looking was Qiao Nian? She would definitely look better than the celebrities if she dressed up, but she usually dressed even more plainly than an old man like him.
Old Master Jiang’s heart ached at this thought. He muttered, “Your father is the same. He’s useless in the end. I asked him to buy you more things that girls like, but he only knows how to do research. Unfortunately, I’m not in good health, so I can’t take you to the mall to shop.”
Qiao Nian finished peeling the orange and placed it on the fruit plate. She then took out a napkin and wiped her hands clean. Then, she looked up at him with a dark gaze and said softly, “Your body will slowly recover as long as you recuperate well.”
Old Master Jiang smiled. “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
The two of them continued talking.
Soon, Jiang Zongnan and Jiang Yao also arrived.
He called out as soon as he entered, “Dad.”
Jiang Yao also called out to him. Then, he placed the nutritional supplements on the bedside table and saw Qiao Nian’s simple glass bottle.
Everyone in the Jiang family had seen it before.
No packaging, no brand, no label.
It was as if it had been dug out of a corner.
It was always filled with white pills. No one knew what brand of medicine it was.
Qiao Nian had only said that the medicine was a health supplement.
Jiang Yao only took a glance before retracting his gaze. After putting away the bags he had brought, he greeted Qiao Nian, “Nian Nian, long time no see.”
Qiao Nian restrained her temper in front of Old Master Jiang. She only hummed indifferently.
At the very least, she didn’t ignore him like how she blocked his phone number.
Jiang Yao more or less knew why Qiao Nian was acting like this. He had no choice but to bear the consequences of what he had done previously.
Jiang Zongnan asked about Old Master Jiang’s health. Then, as if he remembered something, he took out a brocade box and handed it to him. His expression softened slightly as he said, “Dad, this is a medicine developed by Xianrou at the Pharmacy Association. It’s said to be helpful to your body. She asked me to bring it to you.”
“Leave it there.” Old Master Jiang’s attitude towards Jiang Xianrou was cold as if he could not hide his disdain.
Even if she entered the Pharmacy Association and everyone outside pursued her, he still had this attitude towards her.
This was also why Tang Wanru was dissatisfied and was even unwilling to visit him.
After all, in Tang Wanru’s eyes, Jiang Xianrou was very capable now. Even if something had happened in the past, it was all in the past.
Old Master Jiang was still so stubborn, which meant that he was insensible.
She did not want to pretend anymore.
Jiang Zongnan was about to place the brocade box on the bedside table when Qiao Nian, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly said, “Can I take a look at that medicine?”
Jiang Zongnan was stunned for a second before he reacted. He handed her the small box and explained gently, “Xianrou made this herself. It shouldn’t be available on the market.”
Qiao Nian took the box and opened it. Inside was a white pill that looked very familiar.
She raised her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes. She picked it up and tried it.
“Nian Nian, this medicine…” Jiang Zongnan remembered his daughter saying that this medicine was very precious. Shocked, he opened his mouth to stop her.
